MOHAMED SALAH is the best player in the Premier League.

That is according to celebrity Arsenal fan and club shareholder Piers Morgan, who hailed the Liverpool sensation on Twitter after he bagged his 30th goal of the campaign in the 5-0 Champions League rout of Porto.

Salah has taken English football by storm at the second time of asking following his move to Liverpool from Italian giants Roma last summer.

But he is only second favourite with the bookies to be crowned the PFA Player of the Year behind Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne.

Reacting to Salah’s goal against Porto, Morgan said: “Best player in the league.”

The Egypt international previously tasted life in the Premier League during a short spell with Chelsea between 2014 and 2016.

But he only managed six starts for the Blues before heading off to Roma to rebuild his reputation.
